Survminer 0.4.1

New features

• New function ggflexsurvplot() to create ggplot2-based graphs for flexible survival models.

• The function ggadjustedcurves() handles now argument method that defines how adjusted curves shall be calculated. With method='conditional'|'marginal' subpopulations are balanced with respect to variables present in the model formula. With method='single'|'average' the curve represents just the expected survival curves.

Major changes

• The function ggcoxadjustedcurves() is replaced by ggadjustedcurves() (#229).

Minor changes

• The grouping variable to the ggadjustedcurves() function is now passed as a name (character) of grouping variable not as a vector with values of grouping variable.

• New argument font.family in ggsurvtable() to change the font family in the survival tables - such as risk, cummulative events and censoring tables. For example font.family = "Courier New" (@Swechhya, #245).

• Now, in ggsurvplot() the data argument should be strictly provided (@dnzmarcio, #235)

Bug fixes

• ggforest() no longer tries to bolt a table full of text to the coefficient plot (@mmoisse, #241), instead the annotations are done via ggplot2::annotate, see example at: @fabian-s, #264
